What do you think of when you hear the words, ‘Digital Devices’? Before you began this class, you probably thought of your cell phone, your Apple/Android Watch, or maybe your FitBit. You might think of your laptop, or even an iPod. The fact is, any device that is electronic and capable of processing, or storing information digitally (ones and zeroes) is a digital device. Digital cameras, video games, watches, hard drives, thumb drives/SD cards/flash drives, monitors, BluRay players, headphones, webcams, keyboards, mice, and more. These are all devices that at their core communicate with electrical impulses that are either on, or off. On is a 1, off is a 0, the digits that make things digital.
Think about what you learned this week in the lab, the devices you looked at, and the notes you took. What can you tell your classmates about what you discovered, and what you learned? I’d like you to talk exclusively about what you discovered in class, but for more information, check out the videos provided below this assignment.

1) What did you find the most interesting?
2) What did you find the most surprising?

4) What is something you discovered that is not covered in the videos, the readings, and your notes from the lab?
Initial Post: Due by Friday – 150 – 200 words.
NOTE : Citations are required! Tell us which video, article, etc. that you watched/read.
Response – Due by Sunday – One response of 100 – 150 words.
Remember – “I agree completely”, or “That was very interesting!” are not substantive responses. Your reply should continue the conversation.
Example of a good start : “I didn’t know that monitors were one-way devices. I saw a video that explained monitors were digital input devices, but they can tell the computer what kind of monitor they are.”
